I completely agree with both of you but I gotta tell there is a whole lot of hating going over that car on another board. I spent all weekend trying to reason with people and explain that first and foremost it's a pre-pro car and that it'd also a base model but I don't recall one positive comment made by anyone besides me. Lot's of love for the Challenger and even the 2010 Stang but the 5th gen got slammed left right and center.

I was afraid of this happening. Oh well to each their own.

what sight was it that they were tearing appart the camaro? a camaro sight?

Have you seen the bodywork in person, or any final sketches? How long has it been done for?

Not a Camaro site but GM centric none the less. I expected some less than positive responses but not to the extent I witnessed. I guess there are enough naysayers here though so i shouldn't have been surprised. Look at the number of people that would choose a Challenger over a 5th gen in the Auto news section of this site.

I want to say it's been done for about a year. I haven't seen it personally, but it has specific front and rear fascias as well as some other tweaks.

I got flamed in November when I mentioned that I talked to the body panel engineer on the Camaro and Z/28 in the Orlando airport. He told me that it had a different hood that was like Bumblebee 2. Like the old stinger hood from the 60's among other things. He was saying some really good things about it but the suits pulled the plug due to funding and not cafe? It was supposed to be a supercharged V8 to compete with the GT500 and he said it handled like it was on rails.

That is my 2 cents. Anyone want to take back the flames now?

exactly what I was thinking needs to be done and it's what I will attempt to replicate if I get one. If it's just crome and paint that makes it really easy. I too did some net searching and found that it was just the 69's (maybe a couple of the 70's not sure) that had this trim.

I just hope the wife ends up approving the purchase when it comes around. my 95 isn't going to last forever after all.

if for some reason they dont make the z28, they need to leak those photos or drawings. that would be sweet to see. i would be all over a hi- po camaro.....if it were released at the launch. but since it wasnt and isnt, i went with the ss.

That would be because the '67 and '68 models did not have the "gills", '69 was the only year that did.
